23.5: Interlude 23 – Prolationem

Some people's names sometimes represent something more than who they were and what they accomplished. I ask that you remember the person, and not the hype surrounding part of their name.

The Quote

"May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears" – Nelson Mandela

My Thoughts

There is not much for me to say about this one. You should respect fear as part of the natural survival instinct, but to allow fear to rule your life is far from living. Everyone has the ability and strength to choose something better; the only problem is that more often than not, our aspirations, hopes, and dreams lie on the other side of all sorts of adversity. You can survive that journey. Until next time, I am Nolan… Ex Tenebris.
